Santa Monica

This past Sunday I went on a walking and beach riding along the coast of Venice Beach and Santa Monica Beach. My friends and I started at Venice Beach Blvd. where the markets and small shops are located. There is a basketball court and skateboarding rink as attractions. There is also countless amount of services like tattoos, piercings, and art. We rented bikes at a bike shop near market street. It was 12 dollars for 2 hours which was enough time to go up and down the beach. Most of the people here looked like they just wanted to relax on a Sunday afternoon. There was people of all ethnicities and lots of noise. As we rode away from Venice there was less people walking and less shops as well. I would say the parking lots are the midway point between both beaches.

Once getting closer to Santa Monica the pier became more visible and people were becoming more present. Here we posed on a wall next to the pier, the wall has a picture of Royce Hall



The pier serves an attraction for the neighboring cities.
